Episode notes
Join Joe McDonald as he welcomes newcomers to this unique meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous and introduces the ongoing spiritual work of Steps 10 and 11. Joe explains that these steps teach us to continue taking personal inventory and promptly admit when we are wrong, while also improving our conscious contact with God through prayer and meditation. The goal is to increase our awareness of the spiritual power within us and to stay mindful of that power in our daily lives.
In Alcoholics Anonymous, Step 10 focuses on maintaining self-awareness and accountability, and Step 11 encourages deepening our connection to a Higher Power. Joe emphasizes that the spiritual journey is not just about gaining power, but about becoming more aware of it and allowing it to guide our actions.
